  1. Why i was harping on them to add on, you know this guy gonna score and tie it up now. This team just isn't trustworthy to do anything easy or right
  2. Pumping up the Brewers for the next series 🤷‍♂️
  3. What you didn't want to happen, Q shutting them out for 4+ and allowing them to stay close
  4. Alright, held them to one. Need more runs I gotta go to a damn meeting at 6, hopefully it'll be over by 630 Let get more runs
  5. Why they need to add on, Brewers aren't going to play dead here
  6. Just saying in response to other poster, it would feel much better to add on a couple more here over letting it stay close cause you don't want to give the Brewers any hope and it would be nice to also see the Brewers use up a couple more pen guys over having Q shut them down for 4+ innings.
  7. You think the Brewers are done scoring? They need to add on at least 2-3 more runs
  8. Should eat into this bullpen today, which could bold well for tomorrow, but they need to add on and not let Quintana go 4-5 innings.
  9. Swanson should of went straight to 2B on that pop up instead of running all the way in, same with PCA, don't know what he was doing out there besides watching. Should of had the force out at 2B easily on that
  10. No Vaughn tonight, so they got a chance 🙄🙄
  11. Let win a ballgame, I really don't want them to get swept. Hopefully Taillon continues to pitch well and these hitters can figure out a way to get 4-5 runs on the board.
  12. Would be a perfect day for Imanaga to start off of 6 days rest, which could of happened if Counsell didn't start Boyd Game1. 🙄
  13. Just spitballing names from the FA list, it was Gray.
  14. I wasn't agreeing with the names just the positions, SP, bullpen, bench. Right, I think theyll basically sign guys for 1 to 3 yrs at most this offseason, and id be surprised if they go 4+ with any new FA. unless like i mentioned above if Imanaga has the choice and chooses FA then they would likely go after a multi year SP to replace him. I hope im wrong, I just feel theyre going to keep the guarenteed contracts limited going into the 2026 offseason with the possibility of a work stoppage and new cba having a cap. As of now they just have Swanson guarenteed pass 2027
  15. That what I'm looking at too, so what were we disagreeing on? Lol
  16. I can see the Cubs not picking up their end of that option and leaving it in his hand to either takes the 2 years or FA, and If he leaves then they could use his money to go after Cease Valdez etc.
  17. Who are they spending it on though ? You think Tucker returns? You think they'll spend 20+ mil on one of the FA SP? Outside of RF the other positions are filled barring a trade Not saying payroll going to stick at around 175, but there's limited roster spots available for them to add onto, im just not sure they'll go get a guy or two that looking for 20+ on a multi year deal to add that 50 mil to the payroll.
  18. Did you add in the Arbs? But still, who are they going to spend it on outside of getting an OFer that would probably start in RF (if they keep Suzuki as mostly DH) until Caissie is ready and a SP for depth ? Maybe a depth reliever or two. They might overpay to get their guy(s) on a shorter deal which would bump the payroll up, but i just dont see any openings, barring trades, to the roster for them to add significant costly players.
  19. My guess would be very little, mainly because most of their roster is filled already and they have a couple guys in system ready or close to ready, coming up in 2026. They'll probably add a veteran OFer for the bench and a SP for depth, maybe bullpen depth.
  20. Like I said, they just went through the motions after falling behind like they did.
